Ultrafiltration Membrane Devices

        A continuous ultrafiltration membrane device is shown below:

        This device is suitable for a substrate of high molecular weight and a product of low molecular weight. Since the enzyme used here is soluble, no improvement in the stability of the enzyme can be expected. A hollow fiber device can also be used and its characteristics are essentially the same as those of an ultrafiltration membrane.
